Tracker Type : Ratio

Tracker Birthday : ? June 2010 ?

euTorrents is the sister/brother site of AsiaTorrents.com. So if your familiar with that site, this on runs on the same principles, rules, ratio system, userclass and donation settings. euTorrents focuses on European county movies so you'll find movies from both western Europe (e.g. France, Germany, Italy, Spain) and eastern Europe (Romania, Poland, Russia). Since these are foreign language films the site also provides subtitle downloads, but not all movies have them. The site primarily has SD content, but there are some HD releases as well. They have both classics and newer movies. One nice feature similar to their sister site is their euTorrents.com blog/home screen, which they use to highlight new releases and movies they like. If your looking for a European content this is the site to go to.

Invite System
The invite system was not active at the time of this review. I'm guessing this was related to their having available account slots open. Not sure if this will change now that they are pushing against the tracker's user limit. The sign-up page was per invite only when I checked for this review.

The only other information I could find is that you can buy an invite for 1000 bonus points, similar to Asiantorrents. It remains to be seen if the other invite options from AT will be adopted.

IRC Details
euTorrents uses a Web IRC client. I think these are the IRC server details: server : irc.rizon.net channel : #eutorrents

Ratings & Personal Commentary
euTorrents (EUT) is the younger sibling of Asiatorrents (AT). As such you'll be instantly familiar with the tracker if you know AT. EUT is shaping up to be the go to place for European content and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of content available for German and French movies (which is what I'm primarily interested in). It helps to speak a European language since subtitles are not always available not to mention being able to listen to the original actors voices.

Movies range from new releases to classics and their resolution is mainly SD, but this might change later. I'm guessing most content is DVD rips but with the spread of DTV in Europe I'm hoping we will see more made for TV movies. Availability of seeds is pretty good, but for older uploads don't expect too much from the upload speeds, given how hard it is to find this stuff I'm more glad that I have seeds at all. It is fairly easy to maintain a positive ratio with the 2x and Gold/Silver torrents. Just make sure you build a poistive ratio when you start so that you don't end up seeding some obscure torrent for a long time. Another big plus is the home/blog page where they highlight movies which with large pictures, detailed descriptions and trailers. These are really nice for finding quality movies that you normally wouldn't know anything about. The torrent details pages are very descriptive and I love sights that take the time to add pictures and in movie screenshots. Newer torrents will have more detail than older ones.

The forum looks pretty new and they have finally split it off from the Asiantorrents one. That leads me to my only 2 grips. Given that AT and EUT are sister sites I've found cross linking between the site to the point that sometime a link might be dead or I have to logon to AT to access something. The second item is the use of full page ads that blend in from time to time when you load a page and you have to wait a few seconds before you can click them away (I know these trackers need to fund themselves somehow).

EUT is my current favorite and the only European dedicated tracker that I know of (if someone knows a better I'd love to hear from you). Until recently the tracker was open, but after their recent freeleech promo I encountered an invite only page. Hopefully this will change when they trim away the dead accounts. I hope they never get so busy that they implement the 2 week rule where you need to login to the tracker site or they will delete your account.

One warning before you sign-up. Given that Europe is more liberal with nudity and sexual content you will find a lot of adult (non-porn) material on the site. These are well marked with Nudity and Sex at the start of the description when you are on the torrent's detail page. If this bothers you don't sign up.
